    What are some of your likes or dislikes of the S5iix?

      @mostlyfinnishlifeeventsand5112 3 місяці тому +3

      Biggest dislike: can't give it the minimal shutter speed when shooting video. It's only available in photo mode.

      @mostlyfinnishlifeeventsand5112 3 місяці тому

      Most of the time I prefer using as fast a shutter speed as I still can with reasonably clean (not very high ISO) image because then I can just grab frames from the 6K Open Gate video and provide them as almost-real photos, the 6K Open Gate video being so darn good. That's, however, VERY hard if the camera uses 1/30s shutter speed and frames just exhibit major motion blur / camera pan blur.

    Great camera. I use it for run n gun travel videos. Stabilization is perfect. I shoot everything exclusively handheld, I don't carry any stabilizers or a tripod with me. I combined my S5IIx into a rig with Blackmagic VideoAssist and SmallRig V-mount batteries. A real small cinema camera. BRAW is wonderful to work with in DaVinci.

    • @mostlyfinnishlifeeventsand5112
      @mostlyfinnishlifeeventsand5112 3 місяці тому +2

      BTW, speaking of music: I've used the 28-200 to film, among other things, really loud death metal concerts with the S5 II (on a tripod). I had initially been afraid of keeping the OIS enabled in the lens as I've had very bad experience with almost all iPhones' (non-disable-able) physical stabilization wobbling during loud music. No such problem with the 28-200.

    • @mostlyfinnishlifeeventsand5112
      @mostlyfinnishlifeeventsand5112 3 місяці тому +2

      So I can recommend the S 28-200 for concert if you only have one camera (one man) and would like to do even extreme zooming. Of course the lack of a motorized zoom is an issue with all L-mount lenses.

    • @Ansonandco
      @Ansonandco  3 місяці тому

      For documentary I would look for a good zoom lens. 28-200 is nice, it may not be super versatile cause of the lower aperture. What is your ideal budget?

    Really want to get this camera but the heavier processing (sharpening and noise reduction) which the older cameras didn't have S5/S1/S1H has kind of swayed me away. That and the poor hdmi latency + not being able to punch in while recording. The AF is really good and Prores RAW/BM RAW looks great out of it.

    Hey Anson,
    Love the S5iiX but it is missing one key feature
    TIME CODE JAM OVER AUDIO (like blackmagic) or USB C (LIKE SONY)
    I can put a TRS cable from my Deity TC1 timecode generator to my BMPCC 4K, 6K and it snaps the TC right away sony and even my DJI ACTION 4 can do that over USB C which is crazy that LUMIX forgot to implement this feature to S5iiX I would pay for it if needed...
    If you can talk to your friends LUMIX ambassador and give the feedback to LUMIX please implement it in a firmware update it schould be doable imho... and the camera would be perfect even for the pros (OLPF can be on the GH 7 SH2ii ) TIMECODE please LUMIX

  • @mostlyfinnishlifeeventsand5112
    @mostlyfinnishlifeeventsand5112 3 місяці тому +1

    Another major missing thing is a define-able minimal shutter speed in terms of the current focal length (for example using the well-known reciprocal rule (1/focal length in seconds) minus some, user-definable, 2-3-4-5 stops for the entire zoom range), juts like the one even with the oldest Fujifilm system cameras. With superzoom lenses like the 28-200 you can't use for example 1/15 to shoot at 200mm (while having almost all shots blur-free), which would otherwise be more than sufficient for 28mm. Even a pain reciprocal lower end would be better than having to ALWAYS re-set the min. shutter speed in A mode in the menu.
